While we were in LA...

In April we went to LA again. We love going the sunny California, and LA is like my second home, and staying with Lynette, Jeff and their boys in their house is like being with family.

American Military Museum

Jef and Jeff took the boys to the museum which isn't far from the house. On their website it says "The American Society of Military History is dedicated to preserving the rich history provided by the vehicles that the military has used."

Easter Carnival

Held at Smith Park just up the road from home, we walked there for the annual event. Oh my, it was crazy busy. We had pancakes and sausages for breakfast, and there were easter egg hunts for the kids in various age groups. The local fire brigade and law enforcement officers were there too. It was a good community event.

Discovery Cube Orange County

This is such an amazing place for kids and adults alike.

We were here for the Mega Bubblefest Laser Show performed by Deni Yang, world-famous bubble artist and Guinness record holder, and the general admission area was great entertainment before and after the show.

Here's a short clip of Kien playing on one of the many interactive exhibits.

There was a giant outside area where the kids ran around looking for fossils. They were given wands that they wave around at the fossil when they find it, which tracks their progress.

The kids were also able to build Mars rovers and launch rockets using iPads.

They did science experiments too.

Of course the main event was amazing, and there was no photography allowed. Afterwards however we were able to take a couple of pics.

That was the first 4 days of our trip. Then we went on a roadtrip - destination - Las Vegas.
